The Pardé coefficient, first introduced by Maurice Pardé in 1933, is the most famous water regime classification system in the world, and can be calculated and adapted to any river on the globe, based only on the average flow of rivers. In the Căliman Mountains, an analysis of the river’s water flow regime has not been performed according to this coefficient so far, this work being the first of its kind. Following the completion of this paper, it was observed that the variation of climatic elements (precipitation and temperatures) in the period 1950-2010 influenced more the regime at a seasonal than at a year level. Changes were observed at the level of the season with the lowest runoff, at the stations from Someș River basin, changing in the analyzed period from winter to the beginning of the period, in autumn after the year 2000.

The paper has a structure with four parts and presents the climatic risk aspects that happened in Romania during the winter of the year 2019, concentrating on Bucharest, where a very rare and dangerous phenomenon occurred, `freezing rain`. The first part contains the theoretical analysis of the subject under discussion (the notion of risk and freezing rain), in the second part we analyzed the synoptic context (the causes that led to the phenomena) and the datacollected, the third part presents the results of the research (the duration of phenomena and the case study in the city), and the last part deals with proposed measures in order to reduce the risk of freezing rain, measures that can apply to any dangerous weather phenomena with freezing deposits. Therefore, the study aims to analyze this risk starting from the theoretical explanation of the synoptic context that generated its production to the quantitative analysis of the phenomena. To achieve this objective, the periods ECMWF models and the synoptic databases were accessed, with the help of which the representation and evolution of the phenomena was managed.

The particularly hot summer of 2021 occurred after the third Mediterranean winter registered in Oltenia. Although the winter was warm, being the third warmest winter in descending order of the seasonal average, the spring of 2021 was cold not only in Oltenia, even in the Northern Hemisphere being considered one of the coldest springs. This weather remained until 15.VI, then on 22.VI began the first heat wave of summer 2021. During the summer of 2021 there were 6 heat waves that had several peaks. (19) with intensities frequently exceeding 38,0°C. The summer maximum temperature was 41.1°C recorded on 1.VIII.2021 in Calafat. The drought and heat wave were intense, and the total duration of the heat waves was 50 days (54.3% of summer days). The particularly hot summer of 2021 was recorded in atypical conditions with neutral Southern Oscillation (ENSO). All spring crops were severely affected. The paper analyses the climatic conditions in the summer of 2021 in Oltenia and climate variability.

The hydrographic basin of the Iara River, a former mining area (territory imposed over the Iara Depression) presents numerous locations with degraded lands following the mining activity (in the former exploitation points at Făgetu Ierii, Mașca, Măgura Ierii, Băișoara), as well the development of massive deforestations in the upper sector of the Iara River (upstream of Valea Ierii commune). On medium and long term, these degraded lands are and will be included in ecological protection and conservation projects, so that, for example, the former mining points can be introduced in the tourist circuits. We mention that currently there is already a trend in this regard, in countries such as Poland, Slovakia, where former mining operations are included in tourist circuits, and tourist numbers are increasing in these locations (example - Silesia region). Thus, the transition must be made from the former Iara mining area, to a tourist area in which we hope that tourism will become the main economic activity. We add that, at present, there is only one exploitation point (of industrial dacite - in Băișoara locality), and tourism is relatively in an incipient phase (in Iara commune), while in Băișoara and Valea Ierii communes tourism is much more developed compared to Iara. On the other hand, there are many degraded lands following the geomorphological processes within the Iara Depression (landslides, ravines, gully erosion) in Iara, Făgetu Ierii, Agriș, Valea Agrișului, the low area of Băisoara (overlapping the Iara Depression). Thus, in the present study we aimed to classify degraded lands from the Iara river basin in two categories, namely: degraded lands caused by anthropogenic intervention, and degraded lands generated by geomorphological processes (practically based on a natural cause). For this GIS technology was used, to achieve the classification of degraded lands; also prior and after the use of GIS technology, numerous field trips were made to gather information, take pictures, take soil samples, as well as for confronting the reality in the field, following the creation of the cartographic material.

To the south of the city of Cluj, in the perimeter called “Făget”, there are numerous springs often frequented by locals. From a geological point of view, there is a great variety of rocks of different ages and characteristics. The waters cantoned in these geological structures appear on the surface along the valleys, on the slopes or even in the unevenness of the interfluves. Their existence was facilitated by vertical erosion processes and mass movements of the material. Through the inventory of the area, 28 sources were identified and located. They can be divided into several categories: with drain, wells, inactive, dried, captured. Spatial coordinates were determined for each source. Where possible, the flow rate, temperature and concentration of dissolved in water substances were measured. There is a large gap in flow variation, relatively constant temperatures and wide limits of TDS values. The expansion of the urban area involves potential risks of a quantitative and qualitative nature.

Globally, 2020 ended the warmest decade since the beginning of the measurements (WMO), and the warmest year was 2016, marked by a strong and intense El Ñino. In Oltenia the warmest year was 2019 with the average for the whole region of 12.4°C and the deviation from normal of 2.5°C, followed by 2020 with the general average of 12.2°C and the deviation from normal of 2.3°C. After the 2019- 2020 warm winter, which was the second Mediterranean winter in southern Romania, followed the normal thermal spring in which climatic anomalies were frequent. The summer of 2020 was warm and marked by great climate variability, given by the presence of a weak La Ñina climate process. Since June, the average temperature is normal and unstable, the climatic alternations and the progressive increase of the air temperature, determined that in August the weather will be the warmest during the summer and an intense heat wave occurred at the end of the month with the peak on 1.IX.2020.The paper analyses special climate variability in the summer of 2020, which is the continuation of an extensive series of works on climate variability and climate change in southwestern Romania (I. Marinică 2006, I. Marinică, Andreea Floriana, 2016, 2020). The paper is useful to all those interested in climate variability and climate change in this part of Romania.

The Căliman Mountains are the highest volcanic mountains in Romania, being positioned on the western side of the Eastern Carpathians, between their central strip (north and east), south – the Harghita Mountains, and west – the Transylvanian Depression. This positioning gives special features of the water drainage, with both spatial and temporal differentiations. This paper analyzed the trend of average drainage from rivers in the studied group for the period 1950-2010, both multi-annually and seasonally and in the extreme months; the months taken into account being those with the lowest flows (January), respectively the largest (May). To evaluate the mentioned parameters, we used the help of Excel MAKESENS (Mann-Kendall test for trend and Sen’s slope estimates), which identified the type of drainage trend (positive or negative), and using the Sen nonparametric method to estimate the slope of the trend. Based on the type of trend obtained, 9 trend classes were obtained, and with the help of the slope, the net change rate was obtained.

The phenomenon that occurred during the blizzard from February 5-6 in the mountains and especially on the southern slopes of the Southern Carpathians, is known in the literature as "strong downslope winds". This phenomenon occurred in a typical blizzard configuration, in which the differentiated advection of temperature led to the formation of a very stable air layer, with thermal inversion approximately between the levels of 850 and 700 hPa; and it also contributed in this layer to the change of wind direction to vertical. Thus, the existence in the same air layer of two factors favorable to the formation of a critical level, created the ideal conditions for generating strong downslope winds.

This study aims to develop risk analysis methodologies on floods, analyze floods produced on the Suhu River in Pechea village (Galați county), and factors that favor flooding. Flood analysis represents one of the main concerns of researchers in hydrology in the context of climate change. It is increasingly leaving its mark on the frequency of precipitation and, implicitly, on the production of floods. We presented the definitions of floods, and we presented the study area in the first part of the article. The monthly and seasonal frequency of floods were analyzed, and there were calculated specific parameters of a flood produced in the study area. Then, the factors that favor the occurrence of floods were analyzed. The results obtained will contribute to the complete information on floods in small basins in the plain area on the Romanian territory.
